Their newest product, the SmartTOP add-on convertible top controller, is now available for the new Audi TT Roadster 8S.

By installing the SmartTOP Convertible Top Controller kit, you will no longer have to hold down the convertible top switch for the entire duration of the operation. All it take is a quick tap to start a full automatic top opening or closing cycle. The top can also be operated from afar, meaning that top can already be lowered while you approach the car; a great convenience for those hotter days. The top can also quickly be closed at the first sign of a raindrop falling from the sky. Your original key or remote transmitter does not have to be modified for these functions.
Like other products in the SmartTOP lineup, this module also offers several bonus features. The windows can be controlled separately from the top by use of the remote. In addition, the wind deflector can be programmed to automatically rise after the top opens. On cars equipped with keyless entry, the top can also be controlled by touching the door handle three times. The console switch operation direction can be reversed and an extended mode can be activated ,which allows the ignition to be turned on or off during an ongoing top operation.
The entire module can be temporarily disabled while retaining all user configuration settings for when it is re-enabled later. The SmartTOP Convertible Top Controller is equipped with a USB port, so it can be connected to a Mac or Windows PC for quick and easy configuration and updates. Support software and updates are offered by Mods4cars free of charge.
The kit includes a plug-and-play wiring adapter harness which results in an extremely simple installation process. Connections between the SmartTOP remote and the vehicle electronics are made by plugging in connectors. There is no need to cut or splice wires. As easily as installed, this kit is just as simple to remove and it leaves absolutely no damage to the car.
